[Bug 1086339] [NEW] Can not install raring desktop with manual partitioning

[Parameswaran Sivatharman]

Public bug reported:

Selecting manual partitioning to install the latest raring desktop fails
to create partition table and therefore its impossible to continue with
the installation.

Occurrs on both vm ( virtual machine manager based) and on hardware with
i386, amd64 and amd64+mac images.

Steps:
1. Start the installation
2. On the Installation type select Something else and click 'Continue'
3. Select the device to partition and click 'New Partition Table' on the next window of Installation type
4. Click 'Continue' on the 'Create new empty partition table on this device?' dialog
5. Here it could be noticed that the + sign is still grayed out and a new partition table can not be created.
